Mexico dissolves their version of FBI, discussing legalizing drugs

[DirtyDigz 1,812]

A lot of repercussions to this - looks like the new Mexican president and his party that recently won the elections in Mexico wants to cozy up with the drug cartels instead of fighting them.

...Two days after the election, President-elect Peña came to the U.S. to announce that he would “welcome debate on the issue of drug legalization and regulation in Mexico.” In an interview by PBS News Hour, President-elect Pena clearly stated:

 

I'm in favor of opening a new debate in the strategy in the way we fight drug trafficking. It is quite clear that after several years of this fight against drug trafficking, we have more drug consumption, drug use and drug trafficking. That means we are not moving in the right direction. Things are not working.

 

These are “code words” to signal the PRI intends to cut a profitable deal with the cartels to legalize drugs in exchange for collecting tax revenue on drug sales. The month before, Congressman James Sensenbrenner (R-Wis.) called a Congressional hearing to accuse Peña Nieto of advocating "a reversion" back to the old PRI policies of "turning a blind eye to the cartels" as long as they weren't perpetrating grisly violence. ...

 

As you might imagine, US Border Patrol/law enforcement is not very amused:

 

... These actions have caused major alarm among rank-and-file border agents that the Sinaloa Federation and Los Zetas are now unrestrained to flood into the United States with drugs and violence. ...

Can't deny that the above is true.

And to think just last year, the President of Mexico was calling for the US to impose tougher gun restrictions on civilians. "Hey guys, disarms yourselves and things will get better..." yeah right...
